Abstract (en)

A device for use in a surgical distraction and retraction assembly, the assembly including the device and at least one bone anchoring pin for securing the device against a bearing surface. The device comprises an integral frame (1) defining an internal space (13), the frame having a first pair of opposing side arms (2,3) and a second pair of opposing side arms (4,5). At least one of said side arms of said first pair of opposing side arms including at least one recess (11, 18) each having one of its ends (12) open to the internal space defined by the frame and an opposite closed end (14) terminating within said at least one side arm. Each said recess retains one said at least one bone anchoring pin and is configured to enable relative movement between the frame and the bone anchoring pins. The relative movement allows selective locking of said at least one anchor pin against the frame at a user selected location to maintain a selected extent of vertebral distraction.
